My e90 got keyed. Need Body Shop Recommendations

Hi guys,
Over the weekend my 2008 Titanium Silver Metallic 328 got keyed
I will be opening up an insurance claim tomorrow. I am looking for body shop recommendations specifically with BMW paint.

In the past experiences with other body shops i've not been very happy with the paint matching ability on my other silver car ; I could tell the difference that the panel had been repainted and I wasn't exactly satisfied with that. I don't want to be able to tell that it's been repainted

Can anyone recommend me an experienced body shop in OC? Damage is mainly on the hood but got some of my door too

Thank You.

Sorry to hear that man, I recently had a door kicked in myself; none the less, what you should have done was file a police report, go to insurance with the report number and have them search for a dealer in the network that is approved

Damn man, no recommendations as I don't live in California, but wanted to say hope it all gets sorted soon. That's awful, why would anyone do that.

I recently got my rear bumper painted by perfect color in anaheim as recommended by another forum member. I have a tiag also and the paint match was really good and the quality was excellent. Others have had positive experiences as well

+1 for Perfect Color. Had my rear quarter repaired and a new rear bumper done. I couldn't be happier.
